On Aug. 31, Alaska's congressional delegation congratulated 19 appointees to the new Alaska Salmon Research Task Force, the result of federal legislation passed last year. The appointees, spread between federal and state, industry, subsistence, and academic subgroups, will be required to develop a coordinated research plan examining the challenges facing Alaska's salmon within one year of convening. An additional 29 names were announced to serve on a working group looking specifically at salmon declines on the Yukon and Kuskokwim rivers.
